Manchester United and Liverpool target Ruben Neves has not ruled out a move to a Premier League rival this summer, according to a fresh report.
Erik ten Hag has already brought in the likes of Christian Eriksen, Casemiro and loanee Marcel Sabitzer to boost his midfield options since taking over at Old Trafford last summer.
Yet United continue to be linked with several midfielders across the continent as the Dutchman rejuvenates his squad.

Meanwhile, Liverpool are having a dire season, partly due to their underperforming and injury-prone midfield. First-choice trio Thiago Alcantara, Fabinho and Jordan Henderson have all been in poor form or suffered injuries at various points of the campaign.
Furthermore, fringe players Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain and Naby Keita are both likely to leave in the summer upon the expiry of their contracts.
Klopp has been tipped to go into the market in the summer, with Borussia Dortmund’s Jude Bellingham and Wolves duo Matheus Nunes and Neves having been linked with moves to the Anfield club.
According to Spanish outlet Sport, Neves has not ruled out a move to a Premier League side this summer, with Liverpool and Man Utd continuing to be linked.
The 25-year-old’s contract expires in the summer of 2024 and he has not yet committed to extending his stay at Wolves.

The Portugal international was tipped to move to Barcelona in the January transfer window and the Spanish publication claims Neves’ agent, Jorge Mendes, met with the La Liga giants this week to discuss his next steps.
Neves’ camp will reportedly “listen to offers” that come their way, with Barcelona thought to be the player’s “priority”.
However, Liverpool could also make an approach, having held talks with the player in the past, while Man Utd and Newcastle are also linked.
